GBP/AUD 4H Chart: Tests 2019 low
The British Pound has declined by 2.94% against the Australian Dollar since the middle of June. The currency pair tested 2019 low level at 1.7900 during the Asian session on Tuesday.
Technical indicators suggest selling signals on both the smaller and the larger time-frame charts. Most likely, bearish traders would continue to pressure the exchange rate lower within this week's trading sessions.
However, if the support level at 1.7885 holds, a breakout through the upper boundary of a descending channel pattern would occur during the following trading sessions.
GBP/CAD 4H: Selling signals
The Pound Sterling has declined by 2.17% against the Canadian Dollar on June 16. The exchange rate tested last week's support level at 1.6780 during the morning hours of Tuesday.
Most likely, the Canadian Dollar will continue to gain strength against the British Pound within this week's trading sessions. The potential target for the GBP/CAD currency pair will be at the 1.6683.
However, the weekly support level at 1.6780 could provide support for the currency exchange rate during the following trading sessions.
